I had to laugh ....

I saw this on the Faith mesage board and was nodding along in agreement ...

"Am I missing summat here? Geldorf says that Live8 aint about raising money for charity, its about raising awareness among politicians and public.

The texting lark was about raising money to put the show on. Which they've now done (probably more than enough). Hence, the allocation of the tickets.

Now. Given that the money aint going to charity, who fucking cares whether or not you sell the ticket on and how much you make? Job's been done and paid for. Now its your ticket and if you find some div willing to shell out a monkey to see Elton "10 grand a week on cut flowers" John hamming it up at some emotional wankfest then good luck to yer. "

It wasn't hard to work out that this would happen ... but as they say all publicity is good.
